Experiments were conducted to determine the metabolizable energy (MEn) of eight poultry by-product meal (PBPM) samples. Samples averaged 5.44% moisture, 4.84 kcal gross energy (GE)/g dry matter (DM), 61.2% crude protein, 13.38% ether extract, 16.1% ash, 5.14% calcium, and 2.36% phosphorus. Samples of PBPM were substituted in the diet at levels of 20 and 40%. Values of ME were calculated with substitution for the diet (Matterson's method) and for glucose (Hill's method) and by the fasted cockerel method. Values of PBPM MEn were 7.9% greater when substitution was for diet as compared with substitution for glucose; values were 2.95 and 2.74 kcal/g DM, respectively. Using Matterson's method with three samples, MEn values were determined to be 12.1% greater when PBPM was substituted at the rate of 20% than at 40%; values were 3.33 and 2.97 kcal/g DM, respectively. Differences in MEn between the best and poorest samples (3.79 and 2.77 kcal/g DM) could be attributed to differences in gross energy (5.00 and 4.49 kcal/g DM) and percentage of gross energy metabolized (75.7 and 61.7%). Metabolizable energy was more closely related to body weight gains than the amount of feed consumed. When a modification of Sibbald's fasted cockerel technique was used, true MEn of the eight samples averaged 3.35 kcal/g DM and 69% of GE metabolized. For the three samples assayed by both methods, Matterson's method gave values averaging .97% higher than Sibbald's (+4.3, +.8, and -2.2%). Differences in MEn were mostly highly correlated with ash (-.89), calcium (-.85), and GE (.78) contents of the diets. Projections from relationships found between ME and nutrient compositions of these samples to the average sample used by the poultry industry in the Southeast indicate an average of 3.57 kcal ME/g DM of PBPM (3.39 kcal/g as is).
